BF1942 wtf?!

I would like to learn about unique game situations  to ask people, about most uncommon/amazing things that had happen in this game,
share your "WTF?!" situations, phenomenons, what you witnessed,

...couple days ago on map Battleaxe, i had one that wonder me; i was  in spit and fly around... the axis flak, which is placed on hill, closest to first axis flag , starts shooting at me, in moment i'm throwing down my plane already, escape seemed bad idea,also plane lost half of life, so i correct flying direction to the flak, trying to fly not directly but shooting and changing angle relative to my target to reduce  accuracy of it, sacrificing  speed of course, but  i miss, and in last moment,  i try little chance - to "shave" it, was not really hoping for sucess - to kill  man in flack use ramming, not many chances, only hope to hook shooter head  and not touch other things - very thin line, easier to do this using one wing tilting it down, but that time wings was parallel to the ground.
and it was the first time i saw it happening playing this game - the flak boosted me forward, instantly increased speed of my plane to maximum possible i suppose, because very fast takes altitude, flew over axis airfield really fast too, so even another flak, which was on axis AF, did no harm to my plane and he had  time to only one, maybe 2 shots before i hide over hill!(it was about 10% of plane lifebar when i landed to repair))
and after flew over, i spot that i killed even two guys which I ram from the flak...that was really "WTF" case for me!
I suppose the reason of such weird bug of physics, may have been because that guy in flak turn it like 180 degrees exactly in the needed moment , trying aim ahead of my movement, maybe some server adjusting helped also.
i have many time when flak breaks the plane after touching, change direct of it, changing speed a little and losing health, but nothing even like instantly boosting
i saw many thing, killing pilots in plane using as bullets and wing, raming tank using plane, and keep flying after that, kill to shoot for luck in out of visibility,one time during a thunderstorm my old graphic card 32 mb ram   lag by weird way -(Nvdia geforce video chip) when u can see only yourself but no plane you flyin inside, just pilot without plane, instead of trees infinity lines, and moving objects as unshaped graphic artifacts, wich blinking and changing colors as Christmas tree, and fill all visible space, but i heard its common for such cards, also heard some weird stories about gameplay from ppl and screenshots,
but such as plane speed boost-never happened to me
did somebody had some similar that strong boost by flak to max speed?
(i know jeeps can thrown up in air using abilityag of  aaflacks)but "my" boost was really might)
i  wrote in chat that i had boosted after, but i think nobody spot that))

would be very interesting to read about  rarely happening stories you witnessed, or something what can be called "a unique case", does anybody saw beached ship that way, that its complete out of water?(saw screen, but not sure its real)

when you fall without open parachute while some long, after screaming, does the soldier you playing  starts aloud farting, or only mine lets his gas out?)))
maybe ufos flying higher plane "roof" edge, yetti, etc)))

Re: BF1942 wtf?!

omg how could i not know that,
never saw catapulted plane in such way, why you guys hide this hint from me all this time))))
I had accidentally rammed flaks few times, but I had concluded not deeping in issue, that direct of knockback unpredictable and depend of many numbers such as barrel orientation,  acceleration at moment of collision and ping, and somehow determined value of push or some of that kind)))
Denny, Timmos can you learn to noob how its work on real, to start by this way? or its counts as bag using?
also i just now found out how tanks can be placed on roof)
and why I never saw noone use boost on El Alamein? there is a few added flaks in both airfields in convenient location, even whitout fence around them

Re: BF1942 wtf?!

agree, nice mix of tactic, teamplay and  individual action makes its playble and not too annoying, like most games
so, Timmos share with me about some interest things, not meaning abilily running out map areas, or use jeep to push youself into wall, can you pls share some funny bugs?

Re: BF1942 wtf?!

there are many secrets in bf1942 and also a lot of things in the user created memomaps. For example jokers has a secret in one map that no other clan uses in the league no denny its not a hidden ammo box ... just kidding

bugs are in every map for example there is one bug on gazala. In the backroom of the hangar there is a possibility to glitch through the wall, with that glitch you get outside wíthout using the front entrance. Just one of many i know

I forgot one: you can drive the bomber in one of the houses at the northern village on el ala.

Re: BF1942 wtf?!

bugs where you are unhittable, many players never were good at it. expect a few in the latest period. its lachesis with his hardcore bugging and zeppo. both skilled players though.
